From Lunch on the Thames and Dinner Cruises to private events and public sightseeing tours, we provide a unique way to enjoy London from the water—all year-round.

Private Boat Hire for Every Occasion
Our dedicated private hire team at River Thames Cruises can accommodate a wide range of events, including family celebrations, social gatherings, weddings, and corporate functions. We offer versatile catering options, from simple light buffets and barbeques to plated meals, canapés, silver service, and bespoke menus tailored to your needs.

Sightseeing Cruises – A Must-Do in London
Hop aboard our Sightseeing Cruise, departing every half hour in season from Westminster Pier. It's one of London’s top attractions, offering panoramic views of the capital’s most iconic landmarks. Relax to the captain's commentary where you will find out about London's Historic sights on the Thames, enjoy refreshments, and soak up the city’s historic skyline.

A Trusted Partner in UK Tourism
Over the years, we’ve proudly collaborated with VisitBritain and the British Tourist Authority to promote river experiences as a must for anyone visiting London.

Public Cruises with a Twist
Our popular Thames Disco Cruise runs most Fridays and Saturdays, offering a vibrant night out on the river—complete with music, dancing, and spectacular views of London by night.

Starting in May, don’t miss our BBQ Lunch Cruise, available on Saturdays. Enjoy freshly cooked food onboard, accompanied by live commentary as you cruise through the heart of London.

Whether you're looking to hire a private boat for a special occasion or join one of our exciting public cruises, we’re committed to making your time on the Thames truly memorable.
